[CCCNFBW] Gee Creek update

Wed Aug 16 01:27:20 UTC 2017

Any time a large group of people can show up to the event, is just fine,
corey.
I just want to see if we could get a good date and time set up.
I know this won't be a quick or last minute decision. The representative
will be getting back to me this week.
The only time I cannot do it is the beginning of September. That is my
sister's wedding weekend.

I am ok if we pursue this event: however, I can tell you as the person in
charge of the residential programs at the school, there is not room in the
budget to accommodate having students stay over for a weekend. Maybe a week
time evening would be better.

Yeah, I know this. But in the past the school has had the students stay for
a weekend when we used to have certain events and whatnot.

I'm not sure if they do that anymore, but I'm positive one weekend wouldn't
be hard to set up for them.

Don't you think?

The ok to do this would need to come from our president, but also there are
no students at the school on the weekends. However, I would like to know
more about this product..

Hello, everyone,

Andrew here!

I just got some really cool news! I reached out to a company that
manufactures the eSight device, made to help the visually impaired
community, and they would like to try and schedule an organized event with
us to promote their device. We would all get time to use the device and see
how it helps, they would send someone who has been using eSight to share
how it has helped them, and representatives!

I wanted to reach out to you all sooner, but I've been so swamped. My
apologies.

If you all think this is an event you would like to help promote, let me
know so I can inform them how many of us would like to participate!

I told them when and where we meet, which would be a perfect opportunity
for the students of the blind school to be there and have a chance to
discover more assistive technology!

Not only that, but I know there are visually impaired people in the
community with family members willing to help them, so we could possibly
post fliers, and share with friends and family! I'm super excited about
this, but I want to make sure it's something you are all onboard with.

Send me an email seperatly at Andrew.jn.west at gmail.com

- Andrew J.

Hi fellow chapter members,

Gee creek was a great success this weekend.  We raised $317.00 after
expenses this time.  Thanks to all who worked including

Robert, Bob, Betty, Buna, & Less.  Also thanks to our volunteer drivers
David( Betty's son -in-law), Tom Brungardt, & LAURA.

We could not do this event without our volunteer drivers.

We served well over 500 people this weekend.  Many of whom were extremely
thankful to us for providing this community service.

Take care,😊

Doug

Your Treasurer
